High School Phase 2

Phase 2 of Godley High School includes a four-story Career and Technology Center (CTE) and core classroom addition integrated into the home side of the football stadium and a competition arena and locker room addition on the visitor side of the stadium. These additions will increase the campus capacity to approximately 1,160 students. The CTE addition will accommodate growth for a variety of programs such as IT/Networking, Marketing, Ag, Engineering, Health Science, and AV and allow the district to increase the number of certifications that can be achieved within those curricula. It was important to the district that the stadium and arena not sit idle outside of game days. Each floor of the CTE addition will be integrated into the stadium to create a variety of outdoor classrooms that will activate this space every day. The arena includes a multi-purpose presentation space that will seat 300 people and can be separated from the gym for day-to-day use. The football stadium capacity will increase to approximately 3,800 spectators on the home side and 1,800 on the visitor side with the master plan build-out to equal the home side capacity. As part of Phase 2, there will also be new tennis courts located near the Agricultural Center, new synthetic turf on the baseball, softball, and football fields, and a new track.

Due to unprecedented material cost increases as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, the earlier design that included a three-story classroom addition behind the visitor side stadium was re-evaluated, and more efficiency was gained by moving the core classroom and science lab spaces to the CTE addition. This also provides the district with greater flexibility of what the visitor side stadium addition can be in a later phase.
